SAP Term: project role


Smart SAP Assistant

  • Key Concepts: 
    A project role is a type of resource in SAP Project System (PS) that is used to assign tasks to a group of people. It is a way to assign tasks to a group of people without having to assign each individual task to each individual person. This allows for more efficient resource management and better control over project costs. 
    
    How to use it: 
    In order to use project roles, you must first create them in the Resource Management component of SAP Project System (PPM-CLD-RES). Once created, you can assign tasks to the project role and the system will automatically assign the tasks to the appropriate resources. You can also assign costs and other information to the project role, which will be applied to all resources assigned to it. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating project roles, it is important to consider the skills and experience of the resources that will be assigned to it. This will ensure that the right resources are assigned to the right tasks and that they have the necessary skills and experience for the job. Additionally, it is important to consider how long each task will take and how much it will cost in order to ensure that the project stays within budget.
